After sixty plus year it looks like we’re really very near the end of the Korean War and the Kim’s decades long quest to use nuclear blackmail to force the US and rest of the world to accept Korean reunification by force under the leadership of the Kim’s.
North Korea will destroy its nuclear test site three weeks before a historic meeting between the country’s leader Kim Jong Un and President Donald Trump.
The dismantling is expected to take place between May 23 and May 25, with journalists from the U.S., South Korea, China, the U.K. and Russia invited to attend, according to media reports citing North Korean state news agency KCNA on Saturday. The report said Pyongyang is undergoing “technical measures” to get the testing site ready to take apart.
Inviting foreign press to join local press would allow for “conduct on-the-spot coverage to show a transparent manner the dismantlement of the northern nuclear test ground,” the state news agency said, according to reports.
According to Popeo he has made it completely clear to Kim that a completely denuclearization of the peninsula is the starting point for negotiations, not the end point. He also makes it very clear than any deals made will require unfettered access by inspectors for verification.
The U.S. is ready to allow investments in North Korea once it has verifiable proof of the Asian nation’s denuclearization, two of President Donald Trump’s top national security officials said.
“We’re prepared to open the trade and investment with North Korea as soon as we can,” National Security Adviser John Bolton said on ABC’s “This Week,” one of two appearances on Sunday political shows.
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo went further in an interview on CBS. He talked of the potential for U.S. investment in the North Asian nation from America’s “entrepreneurs, our risk takers, our capital providers” to help North Korea’s people “get the opportunity that they so richly deserve.”
Before any such benefits flow, though, Bolton and Pompeo said the U.S. must have proof that the denuclearization process is complete, verifiable, and irreversible.
These are truly historic times. A lot could go wrong between now and the summit and there’s no absolutely guarantee the summit will be successful but if it is, this may well be the biggest US foreign policy achievement since the end of the The Cold War.
So what will be done to keep this from being the biggest story in the media for the next couple of months? Will the Big 3 and their cohorts over at MSNBC and CNN start a “drag out a trollop a day” campaign?
Mueller’s probe also appears to be almost complete and in serious trouble as well so they’re going to have to invent a new scandal I guess.
Thoughts, Prayers, and keep your fingers crossed we’re a step or two away from making history!
